Hello to all :) What would you prefer? iOS7 or iOS6? I'm curious to know on what would you pick. (I know that most of you would prefer iOS7)

I prefer the look of iOS 6, but like everything else about iOS 7. Since 7.03 the battery life on the iPhone 5 and iPad Mini has been insanely good. Sure I disabled several features, but I'm getting 8 hours of heavy use from my phone now (iOS 6 seven hours on a good day). To me Control Center has made iOS 7 worth it by itself.

When ios 7 first made its public release I wasn't happy as a bunch as apps I liked where not compatible with it.But now it's gotten better.that being said the look was indeed better on ios 6.speed is better on ios 7.i guess at this point ios 7 is better.

How about the same topic that is already under discussion in a thread that even has an appropriate poll too: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1661164/

I want all the iOS 7 features but a design toggle. Because I never had an iPhone with a 4" screen and the iOS 6 design. So I'd like a toggle between iOS 7 design & animations and iOS 6 design & animations. Regarding folders, they can make them horizontally scrollable on iOS 6 design scheme so it doesn't interfere with iOS 7 folder style.

My pet gremlin had the same reaction when seeing iOS 7 for the first time.

Glad I was able to revert back to iOS 6 before the signing window closed.

iOS7

When it first came out I wasn't sure about the look. Now I like the look and I love the feature updates. I have an iPad1 so stuck on iOS5 (so similar look to iOS6) and I find it looks really dated now. A desire to get iOS7 is part of the reason I'm going to get an iPad Air, though to be fair its the processor updates and retina screen which are the main factors.

iOS7 without a doubt. Much prefer the look and use of it on both my iPhone 5 and iPad 3.

Occasionally have to sort things for family members still on iOS6 and it looks very dated now.
